Debbie Wiens is a qualified dance teacher, professional dancer, gymnastic instructor and certified aerobics instructor. She began gymnastics at the age of 7, began dancing in her teens, which evolved into her acceptance in a contemporary dance company where she studied at Ball State University. In the winter of 1984, she began a 10-year working relationship with Youth With a Missions' Academy of Performing Arts in Cambridge, Ontario Canada. Her dance training and performance opportunities included tours to Belize, Finland, England, the Philippines, and Hong Kong. In North America, her extensive travels took her and her teams to the 1984 Olympics in L.A., 1986 Expo in Vancouver, British Columbia, and the 1988 Jr. World Games in Sudbury, Ontario. Debbie has danced in the various dramatic dance productions, worked as a team leader, choreographed shows, been the program director for youth teams, staffed performing arts camps, and served as a back up singer/dancer for rock and Hip Hop bands.

During this time, she also received her certification as a fitness instructor through the YMCA.

Other teaching experiences include Cambridge Theatre Dance School, (Cambridge, Ontario) Qui Danse Studio, (Cincinnati, OH.), Terre's Dance Workshop (Dayton, OH.), The Dance Center (Woodinville and Snohomish, WA)

Continued training includes: Randolph Dance Academy in Toronto, Sinclair Community College, Dance Ad Deums' Summer Dance Intensive in Houston, TX (4x), CDF Dance Conference at University of British Columbia, Project Dance LA, Cross Connection Workshops in LA, Inlet Dance at Cleveland, OH, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company - Dayton, OH, Velocity Dance and Spectrum Dance at Madrona, and PNB Seattle.

Now she has been teaching, attending class and running her own Studio, Reflections School of Dance, on a daily basis since August of 1997.

Debbie is also available on a limited basis for bookings to do workshops and classes in schools, churches and other venues.

She has developed and infused the school with a unique flare and love for dance which reflects her own life experiences and appreciation for beauty.
